MR.  CARL  BRANDT.

Vl/>| 


iHr.  ®arl  Iranbt,  late  of  Chicago,  begs  to  an¬ 
nounce  that  he  has  removed  his  entire  plant  for  the  paint¬ 
ing  and  nianiifactiiring  of  ecclesiastical  and  domestic  win¬ 
dows  to  Denver.  Mr.  Brandt,  after  having  studied  at  the 
Academy  in  Dusseldorf,  Germany,  gave  the  art  of  glass 
and  mural  painting  his  especial  attention,  and  has  an  envi¬ 
able  reputation  for  that  class  of  work.  Mr.  Brandt  has 
successfully  competed  witli  the  leading  American  and 
European  firms.  Among  other  contracts  was  the  St.  Pauhs 
Church,  Chicago  (Pastor  Rev.  R.  A.  John),  Avhich 
amounted  to  over  $10,000  for  windows  and  wall  paintings. 

The  fact  that  besides  painting,  Mr.  Brandt  superin¬ 
tends  personally  all  his  work,  enables  him  to  easily  com¬ 
pete  for  prices,  excellence  of  finish  and  artistic  rendering 
with  any  firm,  American  or  European. 

Portraits  of  the  very  highest  artistic  value  may  be 
painted  on  glass  or  porcelain  from  life  or  photo. 

A  cordial  invitation  to  visit  the  studio  is  extended  to 


any  one  interested.

Mr.  C.  Brandt: 

My  Dear  Sir — It  gives  me  extreme  pleasure  to  state  that  the  window 
has  given  the  completest  satisfaction  possible.  Everybody  is  charmed  with 
the  beautiful  and  artistic  ornament  which  our  church  has  thus  received.  I 
am  sorry  that  you  could  not  be  with  us  on  the  day  of  its  dedication  to 
share  our  happiness.  It  would  have  been  a  day  of  triumph  for  you.  I 
feel  satisfied  that  this  window  will  stimulate  other  people  to  follow  the 
good  example  set. 

Thanking  you  again  for  the  prompt  and  satisfactory  service  received, 

I  am  yours, 

/  THEO.  F.  JOHN.

Dear  Mr.  Brandt: 

Inclosed  please  find  check  to  balance  my  account  for  stained  glass  win¬ 
dows.  Everyone  who  has  visited  the  church  has  spoken  of  your  work  in 
terms  of  the  highest  praise.  Not  only  is  it  superior  to  any  work  done  by 
local  firms,  but  surpasses,  in  my  opinion,  many  of  the  stained  glass  win¬ 
dows  imported  from  Europe. 

Wishing  you  a  Happy  New  Year,  I  remain. 

Very  gratefully, 

EDMUND  M.  DUNNE,  D.  D.

Mr.  C.  Brandt,  Chicago,  Ill.: 

My  Dear  Sir — Yesterday  was  another  galaday  in  the  history  of  our 
church,  the  occasion  being  the  dedication  of  the  new  window.  Everybody 
including  the  donor,  was  pleased,  delighted,  charmed.  If  we  believed  our 
first  window  to  be  a  work  of  art,  second  to  none  in  the  city,  we  think  so 
more  strongly  of  this,  the  second  one. 

Tliere  are  a  number  of  windows  in  this  city  by  Mayer,  of  Munchen,  and 
Tiffany,  New  York,  but  none  of  them  would  be  accepted  in  exchange  for 
our  “Christ  and  the  Children.” 

If  you  ever  desire  a  testimony  in  yom*  favor,  I  shall  stand  to  give  it  at 
any  time.  Accept  my  heartiest  congratulations  upon  the  superb  execu¬ 
tion  of  this  your  newest  work. 

Yours  truly, 

THEO.  F.  JOHN.
